at least 2 teeth on the drive gear. Because the V6 is an interference engine the valves met the pistons and a new/used engine was required. Finding a V6 3 years ago (when the damage happened) was a problem and the nearest one to Ottawa Ontario was one from Chicago. The total repair was around the $C7,400 mark and include the cost of the parts yard engine and it transport to Ottawa, R&R of the engine and in installation of various bits a pieces. So far the replacement has been fine. BTW the belt had been changed by Saab 50,000 kilometers (30,000 miles) prior to its jumping and Saab offered no warrantee or financial help!! Make sure the idlers and all gears are in good shape on a belt replacement.
